Momo, Shade team up on new single

Date Posted: 2010-07-01

Artist Shade’s long awaited new single—Strong Woman--is now available, backed by local Japanese Pop/Reggae singer Momo.

The two musicians, who initially met at a concert where Shade was performing, have collaborated for months on the project, in which Shade sings Japanese, English and Patoois, the Jamaican native language. Momo also sings in English and Japanese. Shade’s been in Okinawa for about a year, mixing local performances and energetic performances across Japan.

Strong Woman was produced in Okinawa, while production and musical elements mixed in Jamaica. The new single is available online on Shade’s website, and will be on all major online outlets in August, and then in music stores.
